A recent article in Thunderclap shares the opinion of physicians and their position and feelings about electronic cigarettes.

Physicians and health professionals are calling in for help to put a stop in seeing patients affected by smoking tobacco cigarettes. Several people are affected so severely that many will die or have their health turn worse and worse each day, ignoring the advice of health professionals.

Health professionals no longer want to merely continue on without any action done to prevent people from smoking. They strongly would recommend making the switch to the obvious public health benefit of electronic cigarettes. Physicians want more of their fellow colleagues to educate themselves in how the electronic cigarettes are benefiting the public to help fight against tobacco-related diseases.

So fellow physicians and health professionals, sign this declaration to promote the usage of electronic cigarettes, and fight the tobacco-usage for the sake of our patients, and the public!

Electronic cigarette use could be banned in several locations throughout New York such as restaurants and offices, if Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s proposal is passed. Not only would the electronic cigarettes be banned, but it would also prohibit the use of flavored nicotine in the e-cigarettes. This would have the intention to limit the attraction of e-cigarettes to the youth.

E-cigarettes contain nicotine which turns into a form of vapor when used. Often times they contain rechargeable batteries, which where heat is produced. The chemicals that combine together turn into a smokeless and odorless vapor that manufacturers of the product commercialize by saying they could be used almost anywhere.

Manufacturers and others in the e-cigarettes industry would argue that their products are much safer than traditional tobacco cigarettes because they release vapor rather than smoke. This could also be a health benefit in aiding people to quit smoking. However, the health effects of electronic cigarettes are assumed to be unknown. They are soon to be regulated devices.

The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention claims that the use of e-cigarettes consumed by youths has increased between 2011 and 2013. The American Association of Poison Control Center reports a large number of cases of youths becoming ill from the liquid nicotine.

Cuomo had already signed a bill stating that liquid nicotine must be sold in childproof packaging.

According to a personal-finance website, WalletHub, it has been announced that the average smoker in Nevada spends over $1.3 million over a lifetime, which includes a pack of cigarettes per day for many years, health care spending, income losses and other costs.

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention , approximately 42.1 million Americans smoke: 400,000 or more of those smokers being Nevadans. As an effort to help Nevadans eliminate their smoking habits, Wallethub evaluated that the cost of smoking is $1.4 million for each U.S. smoker throughout their lives. Nevada’s Governor Brian Sandoval adds to the cost of smoking by proposing a higher tax for tobacco, raising the cost of a pack from 80 cents to $1.20. Annually, this is assessed to add an extra $80 million per year for the state.

Wallethub also provides the chance for public health officials in Nevada to tell tobacco consumers that they can contact help for quitting by calling the toll-free call number: 1-800-QUIT-NOW. This will contact live counselors that can form a plan of action to end their addiction to tobacco.

Experts that no longer want tobacco in the life of society in general have a desire to aid in the good of people’s health, rather than the economic effects tobacco has. The yearly cost on health care in Nevada totaled $1.08 billion, with state and federal tax adding to each household by an extra $796.

Maria Azzarelli, administrator of the Tobacco Control Program for the Southern Neveada Health District states, “Obviously we want smokers to quit because we want people to live longer, healthier lives… The fewer people who smoke, there’s less secondhand smoke in the air, and that helps society as a whole.”

WalletHug then formulated the research into categories:

- Tobacco costs: The mean cost of a pack of cigarettes in every state was combined to the interest income lost on the spending of tobacco.

-Related Health care costs: Data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention showed the cost spend on smoking-related treatments, divided by the total number of adult smokers in each individual state.

- Income lost because of smoking-related causes: Smoking causes more people to be absent from work, resulting in lower productivity and lower income. This results in averaging an amount of 8 percent decline in the median household income.

-Other costs: A boost in the cost of a homeowners coverage premium and secondhand smoke exposure costs.

WalletHub discovered that the total amount per smoker in Nevada had been $1,325,116. The tobacco cost of a smoker in the state was $973,000. Health care cost was $135,602, income lost per smoker was $207,154, and other costs were $9,160.

Gov. Sandovals proposal would not merely be just to take smokers money, but as a way to push smokers to the realization of not having to spend their money on tobacco. This would also be an incentive for them to quit smoking.

Monica Morales of the state Division of Public and Behavioral Health claims “Nonsmokers subsidize smokers in Nevada because insufficient investment in prevention results in tobacco-related health care complications… That leads to high costs for everyone, including an estimated annual productivity loss of more than $150 billion.” Health care costs that are covered by the state’s Medicaid program amounts to $123 million.

Azzarelli says “The average person can take eight to 11 attempts to quit smoking, so it’s something that’s very difficult to do.”

“The most effective government initiatives to lower smoking rates include raising the price of tobacco, smoke-free policies, mass media campaigns coupled with other interventions and cutting the out-of-pocket expenses for people trying to quit,” Morales added.

Dr. Paul Michael, a chemical oncologist with Comprehensive Cancer Centers of Nevada, has spent more than 30 years treating the effects of carcinogens ignited by the use of tobacco products.

He says “Nicotine has all sorts of health risks, but all of the other compounds and elements in the smoke also pose numerous cancer risks… All those multitude of products beyond nicotine cause DNA mutations of the cells they come in contact with.”

“Smoking affects the mouth, tongue, windpipe, bronchial tubes, lungs and even the bladder, because that’s where all of those cancer-causing substances collect before being excreted from the body,” says Michael.

“No regulatory agency will crack down on smoking in casinos even though secondhand smoke has been shown to cause cancer. Every year, 6,500 people die in the U.S. from secondhand smoke,” he says. Michael continues to say ““The poor casino worker who doesn’t smoke is puffing half a pack just being at work every day.”

Compared to 1999, Nevada’s smoker percentage had dropped from 31.5 percent of smokers to just below 20 percent.

On the positive side, the percentage of Nevadans who smoke has dropped to below 20 percent, according to the CDC. Nevada was considered the smokiest state in the nation in 1999 with a 31.5 percent smoking rate.

Azzarelli states “Some states use tobacco taxes for health programs or efforts to help people quit smoking, but Nevada’s levy goes into the general fund… None of it goes directly to any health program in Nevada, much less a tobacco-cessation program.”

“None of it goes directly to any health program in Nevada, much less a tobacco-cessation program,” she said.

She also wanted to tell people that there could be hazards of using electronic cigarettes and vapor pens because they are not prescribed as a cessation product, such as patches, and they are also unregulated.

“Even those products that claim to have zero nicotine, many of them do contain nicotine,” Azzarelli said. “Other substances that are documented cancer-causing agents are contained in the electronic cigarette juice.”

“We don’t know the long-term effects of using such products, but we do know that documented cancer-causing agents are in those products.”

Electronic cigarettes have been known to show potential of pulling smokers out of their usage of regular cigarettes. Even so, the product contains no tobacco, no tar that causes cancer and no signs of danger yet. However, the e-cig is commonly misunderstood and many are waiting to violate whatever information that could expose of it as ‘bad.’

The main problem about e-cigarettes is that not enough people are crossing over to a healthier side compared to cigarettes. This could be due to the fact of people not being informed or inaccurate labeling. Smokers are shown faulty labeling, news about cancerous chemicals, and toxins that could potentially harm the smoker. The Food and Drug Administration is sadly causing more frustration to smokers, public health experts, and the manufacturers of electronic cigarettes.

With all the news of electronic cigarettes being so negatively looked at, a report done by the American Journal of Preventive Medicine shows that in 2010, 85% of smokers replied saying they thought e-0cigarettes were safer than cigarettes. In 2013, the percentage had dropped to 65%.

Chinese manufacturers are estimated to send more than 300 million e-cigarettes to the United States and Europe. The quality of e-cigarettes is a concern as to whether they will be regulated enough to determine which e-cigs are good or bad, even as they are perfectly safe.

The FDA proposed a structure for regulating the e-cigarettes last year, but with the amount of commentary the public is offering, getting a plan of action corresponding to the public’s safety and health will not go in effect right away.

The proposal would include helpful arrangements, such as banning the sale to minors and publish the ingredients. The downside would be that e-cigarettes would have to go through regulatory processes that Congress puts out for all tobacco products. Companies would also have to show that their products are benefiting its customers. Data would have to be collected to show how the product reacts to the body to teens and nonsmokers. This process would not only be expensive, but it would also be excruciatingly time consuming. Small e-cigarette businesses could fall from the market if the proposal would go into effect.

The point of having a pre-market review would not be to show that e-cigarettes are safe; it would be to show that they are statistically safer than cigarettes. The best way to regulate e-cigarettes would be to show industries how they should manufacture their products, including limitations on the amount of chemicals added. There should also be a way for all sources of the industries products to be traceable, which could verify that the use of the e-cigarette before reaching the consumer is used and kept safely.

Instead of outlawing e-cigarettes all together, restrictions could be written on packages informing people that it contains nicotine and may also require more research for further information. Yet, the FDA could also say that the product meets the safety guidelines are a safer alternative than smoking cigarettes.

If the process is pushed aside and are not set, soon enough, smokers will continuously be feeding the cigarette industries because of a mere belief that e-cigarettes are worse, deriving from false information.
